Here is an article today on Fox news:
Quote: |
TWO Indonesian men were tricked into getting their faces tattooed by a bogus official offering government jobs, News.com.au reports.
Village chief Sawiyono — who was helping the men find jobs in Jakarta — claims he received a text message from a government official offering them work as intelligence officers, but insisted they were inked first with a dragon tattoo, Antara state news agency said.
Sawiyono realized he had been tricked after checking with the subdistrict chief of the Bojonegoro district of East Java who said there was no such requirement.
The unidentified men, however, had already been tattooed, according to the report.
"I am fully responsible for the mistake and I will do my best to help the men remove their tattoos,'' Sawiyono said.
The men sought treatment at a local hospital. |
Anyone want to own up to this?

I would hope no one at Eater would be responsible for this sort of thing as there's no evidence that the two men were scammers or anything other than unwitting dupes.
Lad-huggers have plenty of ammunition without something like this being added to the fray. |

JM - Your point is well taken. But assuming they WERE scammers, this is not the sort of information that would be volunteered by the two tattooed men to the reporters. They are not going to say "We were trying to run a scam when we got tattooed" but would instead say "we would looking for legitimate work when we got tattooed."
Bottom line - unless somebody comes forward here with an admission of involvement, and the incriminating e-mails, we will never know.

Linky please.
Not me BTW, not that good and I see no use in it, mutilating a person for life. Nope no tattoos or hardware on me either
But it shows what power we have here and how careful we have to be, if someone whispers 419 eater, we lose the site
EDIT Thanks for linky
That's not an eater tattoo I think or it's a local member who knows about the religious background of that tattoo.

Scambiating is quite popular so it wouldn't surprise me if it could be a twisted bait, however I hope it wasn't everyone from here, you can never be 100% sure but I'd like to think everyone on here had good motives. |

I have no idea why anyone would assume if it were someone from here the two tattooed could be anything but lads.
Also

if it were only that easy. You don't think the two tattooees left some details out? If it were that easy, we would all have x 650 in our sig lines. Well, everyone except Bill2
Anyhow, this whole thing doesn't seem like a scam baiting thing to me. |

I would agree if it was a baiter it is a good one and those were lads. My gut is they were scamming. |

Of course we think they are scammers. As far as i can tell almost every regular on here wears at least two tin foil hats and sees a potential scam in everything.
It could easily be someone having a bit of a sick joke. People are sick, it's not just lads. There was that bumfight incident a few years ago. Someone got tattooed then. Another thing that springs to mind, but not relating to tattoos is the recent story of a kid jumping to his death - lots of the on lookers were shouting for him to jump and taking pictures of his corpse.
I'd love for them to be scammers, but without evidence, I'm not assuming anything. |

I agree that if it's a baiter responsible for this work of art, FANTASTIC work! I tend to suspect it's either Yakuza or Rumbero. I'm 100% sure that if it is the work of a baiter, especially one here, then those 2 are lads.
On the other hand, if it's the work of some sick egomaniac freak who gets his kicks mutilating people trying to look for work then that's BAD! |

It could have been someone who escaped the indentured worker or slave trade, and he or his family are striking back at the scammers responsible. There are a lot of these kinds of job scams running in the Far East. The story about "control by some kind of 'mystic' is BS, IMHO. But in any case, I sure hope they were scammers, and I know the people here are not going to do this to an ITP.
EDIT: @thefife - It's not Rumbero, as he has been out dancing all day and night for months. And it's not Yakuza either. It's not his style. |

Sometimes it can be really difficult to tell for certain. I received what I thought was a scam email from an Indian company selling fabric and materials. so to cut a long story short my fake church placed a large order for curtains and kneelers. As my bait developed it became obvious that this spammer was not scamming just touting for legitimate business. I made excuses and dropped the bait, no harm done apart from a probable frown or two on the baitee's face.
"If in doubt check them out"
I'd hope no one here would go all the way with such a bait on someone they had any doubts over. |

By the time you get to tattoos, the baiter is 1000% sure it's a lad. But when in doubt, ASEM your lad.
This part makes me think they are lads
Quote: |
text message from a government official offering them work as intelligence officers, but insisted they were inked first with a dragon tattoo, |
If your job is to gain intelligence, you have to blend into crowds/communities/organizations easily...a dragon tatt covering your entire face might make that a tad difficult wouldn't you say? I get the feeling there is more to the story...like a huge signing bonus, company car, laptop, cell phone...
If these were hapless victims then I feel terrible for them. But I find it a stretch to believe not any one of the 3 of them, which after all included the village chief, didn't see red flags as soon as they were told to get inked for a job as an intelligence officer. On some level, it's good this wasn't a real offer for that type of job if they believed that foolishness. IF that's the quality of employees the Indonesian intelligence agency is hiring, they got real problems. |

I heard of someone - also an ITP as it turns out - who fell for a similar hoax.
Someone told him it would get him a Michelin star.
Mind you, he had the last laugh.

I don't know about the tatooed chaps. What comes to my mind is that ALL of the criminals I have worked with in RL have been innocent victims of the system or some fraud.
Rationale such as: "If they didn't want me to take their car they wouldn't have left the keys in it." or "They were too stupid to have all of that money for themselves, so they wanted to give it to me, they just didn't know it." or "It is just a small misunderstanding, I was going to return the police car later in the day." |
